Could you imagine if teams controlled the player rankings in Madden??

This is pretty much nonsense. The vast majority of the fighters make alterations between fights. The only people that "are who they are" may be the established vets, like you said, that is about it.

Prospects not only should be altered after each fight, they MUST be. Guys like Almeida, Sterling, Yair, Ortega, etc. need to be brought up to speed as more real life data comes to light.

As I said I agree with that but not off of one fight. Should Matt Sera be rated as an all-time great just because he caught GSP one night on a fluke? -_-

LOL.

This isnt even close to correct. Its funny how much misinformation gets told on the old forums or even here now.

I cant get into how what I've been told about the UFC's role in the creating the roster because of the NDA but its not just "make a good roster update". They play a bigger role than you think.

Honestly, most of the roster issues I've seen here are a lot more arent as easy to fix than I initially thought.

its probably just a matter of keeping the overalls in a certain order, to reflect some preferred ranking by the UFC. they should simply decouple the OVR from the individual stats. I seriously doubt joe silva knows the difference between the individual categories. keep the OVR's static. the UFC will be happy. now, adjust the individual stats to reflect real life performance. the UFC will be none the wiser.

When they do these updates, they are usually very small. A point of two here or there. A lot of times last game, we were never told about these, so it was up to us to find out. They usually came when they released a patch. They don't have to use a patch to do this though. They just have to push the new values to the servers.

Last game they did give us one update they told us about. Which was more than likely because Conor was updated so hard that they pretty much had to let us know he was going to be that much more powerful.

Think of these as Easter Eggs and look for any changes. They do happen.

Unless they actually look into the ratings or ask EA how OVR are determined. This is a multi million dollar license between EA and the UFC. I dont think the UFC would look to kindly on its partner trying to deceive it. I dont think EA would want to risk its relationship for something like that either.
